Street photography in St. Gallen, Switzerland. This time I decided to deviate from my usual practice of taking black and white and focused on color photos.

The Monastery of the Dormition is one of the oldest in Crimea and is situated in the most beautiful corner of the peninsula - in the heart of the Mariam-Dere gorge framed with cliffs that rise high into the sky.

The exact date of the cloister's appearance in these lands is unknown. Historians incline to the version, according to which, the monastery was founded in the late 8th - early 9th century by Greek monks, who fled to Crimea from Byzantine.

By the early 15th century the cloister numbered several tens of caves already, and a tiny chapel, two houses for pilgrims and several fountains with - as monks believed - healing water were built near the caves.

Свято-Успенский мужской монастырь возведён в долине Мариам-Дере (долина Девы Марии). Время, когда он был заложен, доподлинно неизвестно, историки называют рубеж VIII-IX вв., но существует немало других версий. Общепринятой считается, что его основали в самом конце VIII века византийские монахи, почитатели икон, как и многие их собратья, бежавшие из Византии, когда там после Иконорборческого собора (754 год) началось жестокое уничтожение икон, фресок и мозаик. Монахов преследовали, считая их идолопоклонниками. Здесь, в покрытых лесом тихих горных долинах, они нашли убежище и место для уединённых молитв.

Период наибольшего развития начался для него с середины XIX века, когда тут воздвигли пять храмов, братские корпуса, несколько домов для паломников, а вокруг посадили чудесный сад. Существенную роль в г. Бахчисарай Успенский пещерный монастырь сыграл в годы Крымской войны, когда превратился, по сути, в госпиталь для русских солдат и матросов, защищавших Севастополь.

Во время Великой Отечественной войны, как и в годы Крымской, в ее стенах поместили госпиталь, а после окончания боевых действий, обустроили психоневрологический диспансер. Восстановили монастырь в 1993 г., когда были отремонтированы и отреставрированы почти все здания и храмы. Сегодня он является одним из крупнейших на полуострове.
